saboteur Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 This should be an interesting thread. How much have you spent on your supra since you brought it? (excluding all maintenence and running costs), purely modifications; resprays, performance mods, etc... I am a little weak tbh... only spent about £2K. Oh and finally for the big spenders.... was it worth it do you feel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 This should be an interesting thread. You'd think so but I suspect it will be as interesting as one of the last times the question was asked. But I can't wait to hear from some of the people who have spent lots, I worship those guys.

Matt H Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Oh and finally for the big spenders.... was it worth it do you feel? nope, modying cars rarely is, but its like heroin, you cant stop!! the amount of my hard earned i've wasted is untrue, i reckon i've spent the most on this site in relation to what i've actually got for the beans!!

Matt H Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 P.s, if everything on my car only cost me what it should have done in the fitst, then i wouldnt be bothered about it because it would have cost probably about half that amount, and i'd be happy with what i've got for the money, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Im not sure what you mean, are you saying you have been ripped off or is this because of the crash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
